The proposed I-285 Multi-Use Bridge project consists of a bridge from the Cobb Galleria Center spanning Galleria Drive, I-285, and Circle 75 Parkway to SunTrust Park. The total project length is approximately 1,110 feet.

The mixed use developments in the Cumberland area cater to residents and patrons 365 days per year. The purpose of this multi-use bridge is to provide safe connectivity and mobility between commercial, residential and entertainment options within the Cumberland area. The proposed bridge will be constructed to accommodate pedestrians, bicycles, and future transit vehicles.

Beginning at the Galleria parking deck, the proposed bridge consists of a 32-foot wide bridge and will include a transit lane, buffer, and multi-purpose trail for pedestrians and bikes. The proposed transit lane will end at Circle 75 while a pedestrian ramp will cross Circle 75 Pkwy. and enter the SunTrust Park development.

The Board of Commissioners will vote on the bridge design in their next meeting at the end of the month.
